Social Work Education & Regulation

From Social Work Education to Social Work Practice

An Educational Resource Package

For at least a decade CASWE-ACFTS has been exploring the ever evolving relationship between social work education and regulation. Generally the dialogue has been framed within the context of competency based social work (CBSW) but, while CBSW is certainly central to the discussion, the intersection of the two sectors goes beyond issues of CBSW to questions of vision, control, integrity, and autonomy.

CASWE-ACFTS has prepared an educational resource package to assist educators and other interested parties in exploring the complexity of this intersection.
